Hello Everyone. It is my fist post here and I am really glad. It's been a long time dream of mine to come and live in New Zealand.
I have a couple of doubts on which any input would be really be appreciated.
I have completed my B.Sc. (IT) through distance learning with lateral entry to the 4th Sememter (out of 6 semester's) by completing a Software Engineering course (ANIIT) of 24 months as a per-requisite and also giving a backup exam for the lateral entry to the 4th Semester. The Software Engineering institute (NIIT) where I studied has a tie up with the university and provides this later entry option. The University is recognized by the Indian Government.
So I want to know whether I fall under level 7 of education under New Zealand standards and would I be getting bonus points for it as it is a field of absolute skill shortage list.
I work as a Database Administrator (which comes under the LTSSL - Database Administrator (262111)) and have been working since June 2011. So I will be completing 2 years of work this year.
So am I eligible for bonus points? I guess I am not. I just want to make sure I am not guessing wrong.
Thanks
Abhishek
